#3. Cesaro - A popular babyface among WWE fans

It's a bit unfortunate that Cesaro has fallen under the radar in WWE again. 2021 looked like it was going to be a breakout year for Cesaro as a singles star as he picked up clean wins over the likes of Daniel Bryan and Seth Rollins - beating the latter at WrestleMania.

2021 also saw Cesaro emerge as Roman Reigns' second Universal title challenger post-WrestleMania, although he was never in a position to dethrone The Tribal Chief during his record-breaking run.

Soon after that, Cesaro would lose his feud to Seth Rollins, which also seemingly derailed his push. It's unfortunate, but not surprising.

Before 2021, Cesaro had a strong run as a heel. However, he quietly turned babyface, and like several other stars, his moveset and athletic ability made him a natural babyface in the eyes of fans.

Cesaro is all about entertaining in the ring, so much so that it has been detrimental to him, as he hasn't had too much of a defined character during his tenure with the company. Either way, he is a more natural babyface.
